Working on the capacitive principle, it detects a wide range of media and its sensitivity is adjustable via potentiometer to suit the target and correction factor. It provides a PNP output with selectable normally open or normally closed function, a 15 mm sensing range and a yellow status LED. A robust PBT housing, 10...36 V DC supply and DIN valve plug connection suit level detection and material presence monitoring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKI5038
